EFL: Sunderland, Leeds and Burnley compete for championship supremacy

0


Leeds could have their stakes in taking over the Championship spot on Tuesday when they entertain Watford.

Daniel Farke’s side won two games of their generation at Elland Street without conceding and overcame Yorkshire rivals Sheffield United on Friday.

Tom Cleverley’s Hornets have lost four on the road, scoring just one goal and conceding 11, three of them in a tame derby loss to Luton on Saturday.

On paper it seems like there is only one result, but since when has the championship been so predictable?

At the other end of the table there are two games in abundance on Tuesday when Cardiff host Portsmouth and Queens Ground Rangers host Coventry.

Cardiff have taken seven points from their Generation 3 and, inspired by Rubin Colwill, defeated Plymouth 5-0 on Saturday to move from bottom, the month Portsmouth claimed their first win at QPR to drop off the back of the Rs series.

Rangers are still just one point behind the fourth-bottom Sky Blues, who have lost four in their five games of the generation and have won just three points out of a total of 21 imaginable in the away fixtures since the start of April.

The away team, on the other hand, have won three of four meetings this generation, with Town winning 3-0 and 3-1 in their last two visits to west London.

The closest it gets to a timid defeat at Preston at the weekend would give under-pressure Coventry boss Mark Robins a repeat trip to Loftus Street on Tuesday.

Oxford and Derby emerged from League One together last season and are in the Championship supremacy stage as they prepare to take on any and every opportunity in Kassam on Tuesday.

Paul Warne’s side ended their four-game losing streak on the road at Millwall on Saturday, but Oxford maintained their unbeaten start at home with a last-ditch effort against West Bromwich Albion.
